More Questions About Pin Up Artists
Sep 2nd, 2011 by Aldouspi

Betty asks…

To the artists out there, what is a good pin board surface?

I am looking for big white panels on which I can pin images, and I’d like the surface to be as smooth as possible. I think artists sometimes pin their drawings or photographs up on their walls, they must have some sort of soft board surface, anyone can help with possible ideas? I am not sure what the name could be for this, if I google pinboard I can only find office bulletin board websites, and they are either made of felt, magnetic boards or cork, which is not what I am looking for.

Pin-up answers:

Foamboard is probably what you are looking for – found at art supply stores or arts & crafts stores.

Jenny asks…

Does anyone know where I can find a photographer and make up artist?

I really would like to make my hubby a pin-up girl type calender – please help with where I can go or a photographer that does this, good makeup artist etc…

Pin-up answers:

Contact a company called ‘Glamour Shots’; they will look after all of the details for you and the results will be amazing.

Or you can check for local photography studios that do pin-up and/or boudoir photo shoots.

Robert asks…

If I Heat Up a (metal) Bobby Pin Will it Be More or Less Likely to Break?

I’m an escape artist and I frequently deal with the annoyance of my picks breaking.
I used metal bobby pins to pick handcuffs. If I heat up the bobby pin before using it would it break more easily or not?

In the production of padlocks and handcuffs the metal is heated to make it tougher and stronger so would it do the same to a bobby pin?

Pin-up answers:

Yes, different metals are sometimes heated during production for various reasons, most commonly to harden the material. This is done by heating the metal to a high temperature (above the transformation range) and holding it. The metal is then cooled rapidly which changes the grain structure and makes the metal very hard and brittle. After this, the metal is tempered to increase its ductility (so it won’t fracture as easily).

This is a process done during production, thus many factors are monitored and checked along the way.

Simply heating a metal (such as a bobby pin) will increase the hardness making it stronger, but also make it more brittle. For the application you sited, this will actually hurt you in that the bobby pin will be more likely to break. You may need to get custom made picks…

Charles asks…

Are there any good sketch artists willing to help?

I have a picture of a pin-up girl and I would like to replace her face with my wife’s. I am looking for someone that can sketch very well to help me out here. I am going to have the picture made into a tattoo. Thanks for the help!

Pin-up answers:

Check your local college art department – I am sure there is a student or perhaps an instructor that can help. Of course, your tattoo artist might be good enough for the task…

Army Wife Boudoir Photo Session with Boudoir Louisville

Army Wife Boudoir Photo Session with Boudoir Louisville

With our Louisville studio being so close to the Fort Knox Army Base, we shoot a lot of Military Wives. We always love to hear their stories. Most of our Army Wives book sessions with us so they have a great gift to give their fella when he deploys or when he is due to return home. The client we shot this past weekend was part of a pinup party of Army Wives whose Husbands have been deployed since January. They are all due back in the next few weeks.

While her hubby was away, she started hitting the gym and watching what she ate. Her hard word REALLY paid off. She lost a whopping 120 pounds! We are so proud of her. She looks great and was so much fun to shoot with. I know her husband is going to love those pics!
